Comment Comparatively speaking, lava moves slowly. (Score 2) 64

If I lived in an area susceptible to volcanic activity, I'd have a plan in place to bug out in the event of an event. Compared to most natural disasters lava moves slowly and for the most part, scientists are able to accurately predict eruption risk ahead of time. I wouldn't wait until told to leave.

I live in an area with a wildfire risk, and in fact last summer this area lost over 500 homes to the, "Black Forest Fire". My place was evacuated but didn't suffer any loss. Wildfires move quite a bit faster than a lava flow.

A judge is demanding a United States company to play by the rules of the United States? And you have a problem with that? US law is and should be the only law the judge needs to consider. If US laws are incompatible with other nation's laws, then don't blame it on the judge, complain to your legislators.

Wow. The total and complete ignorance of a once free and liberated people, is complete. Tyrants, have your way. Your new surfs won't fight you; in fact, they'll vociferously defend you. I can hear "Anonymous Coward"'s words in ten years...

"The Iyatola (PBUH) gives you your government-approved nutrition cube, twice a day no less, and you still are ungrateful and demand, "Pizza"? Don't blame the Iyatola (PBUH), complain to your local labor camp division lord."

WHO CARES?!?!? Some things attract women and some things attract men. MEN AND WOMEN ARE DIFFERENT! Why this is such a mystery to anyone in this day and age is only because of pure, ignorant, political correctness bullshit. Why should any particular website try to achieve gender parity? Some things are manly and some things are feminine. I'll bet that this website has a female to male proportion in the other direction - http://www.sofeminine.co.uk/ - while this one will be mostly male - http://uncrate.com/. Who cares? Men like to argue and mix it up. Wikipedia is perfect for that. So it's not a female thing. Get over it. Actually, now that I look more closely at sofeminine, and see that article on the Kama-Sutra, I'm guessing that the numbers may move a bit over the next few days, but then probably fall back later.
